access to all of his commanders. >> reporter: loeb believes broadwell had no idea the affair was going public on friday. she and her husband wither in virginia celebrating her -- were in virginia celebrating her 40th birthday with a party planned saturday night in d.c.. her husband reportedly canceled it via e-mail hours before. >> i'm sure both of them look back on what is now transpiring in real life and both made the biggest mistakes of their lives. >> reporter: the scandal has not surprisingly boosted the sales of her book. it went from a modest ranking of 796,000 on friday when general petraeus resigned to a ranking of 159 today. andrea mccarren, 9news now. >> president obama will not only have to nominate a new cia director, he will also have to choose his next secretary of state. there hillary clinton has confirmed she will leave the post and cbs news learned u.s.

this video game is not only expected to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars, but since the game came out last night at midnight, some are expecting a possible sickout by gamers you see them lining up there who may have spent all night in front of the xboxs and ps3s. here to shed some light on the game itself and why it just may help reinvigorate a suffering industry mike snyder is tech reporter at "usa today" newspaper. mike, thank you so much for coming 234. we appreciate it and -- in. we appreciate it and we should note that while the game is called black ops 2 it's really call of duty 6. what's it about this one that makes it so successful? >> what's tough is every year they have to do something bigger and bigger and every year they're getting into more billions and billions of dollars. it's just kind of gone steadily up and i think this game can outperform the ones in the past even if it's by little still going to be millions of dollars. they've really tried to do a really good story and bumped up the things you can do in

multiplayer. got the huge extra totally entirely separate zombie game that's bigger than ever. it's just you know a giant package of entertainment. >> all right but now the fact is, video game numbers in recent months have not been so good. in fact last quarter i think sales were down 25%. how much -- how much help will this game be to the industry and why do you think the industry is suffering? >> well, this will be the biggest bump to the industry that they can actually get you know. it's been months like ten months in a row sales have been down. but those sales numbers also don't take into account digital sales like if you're playing ogham on the phone, if you're -- a game on the phone. if you're buying downloadable content or buying games straight on kennel. actually the industry is growing with the number of people playing but the money's coming in it's kind of holding stale. what's very they believe louse about that -- nebulous about that. >> i had my own theory about that. the improvements have been so incremental. it doesn't look that difficult from today's brand new blockbusters. >> this game may look a little

bit better it's hard totem. they're really focusing on story in the game but what's coming down the road is there's new game systems. the wii u is coming out on sunday. it's got the first high definition games from nintendo. then last year expecting maybe a new xbox and playstation 3. that will maybe make you want to open your wallet a little bit more. >> can the industry survive? like halo 4 which also just came out when they don't seem to be able to just churn them out on a regular basis? >> the games cost so much to make. if you watch through black ops 2 and watch the screen credit it's like watching a pixar film. cost into the tens and sometimes hundreds of millions of dollars possibly. it's become blockbuster based but what happens if you're online you also get the downloadable games which are like independently made. so they're going to have to balance th out when the new systems come out. >> oh mr. snyder it's been a lot of fun talking with you. i have to go home and play.

thanks a lot. >> good see you online. [ laughter ] lesli? >> we know why you won't be here tomorrow. all right. there's smashers news now. breaking news the man who -- some serious news now. breaking news now. the man has recanted that story. maryland native kevin clash took a leave of absence from "sesame street" to challenge the allegations and today attorneys for the accuser say in a statement quote -- he wanted to be known that his sexual relationship with mr. clash was an adult consensual relationship. clash says through a spokesman that he is relieved that this painful allegation has been put to rest. coming up on 9news now -- the founder of the mcafee antivirus software is in hiding amid questions about the murder of his neighbor. >> but up next, a driver who passed a stopped school bus serves her sentence amid complaints she's not taking her

be seen holding up a sign today reading only an idiot would drive on the sidewalk to avoid a school bus. she did that. you may remember hardin was videotaped doing that earlier this year. that's her car. but some are complaining she's not taking her sentence very seriously. >> she's leaning against the post. if that was community service there'd be a guard standing there making sure she's doing what she's supposed to be doing. she wouldn't have her headphones on and not be allowed to smoke. >> the sidewalk is for pedestrians, it's not for cars to drive on. poor decision. >> no kidding. in addition to holding up the sign for an hour today and tomorrow, hardin's license has been suspended for 30 days and she was ordered to pay $250 in court costs. five people are dead in toledo, ohio, the result of an apparent murder/suicide. three children, their grandmother and an uncle were found with a car and a hose leading from the exhaust pipe. the children were 5, 6 and 10 years old. police say the children's grandmother had been their

in tonight's health alert the state of maryland gets on the breast-feeding bandwagon. many hospitals are already moving away from offering new moms free formula and other giveaways that encourage the bottle over the breast. and today, at shady grove adventist hospital maryland's department of health issues new recommendations that acknowledge moms need support from the moment a baby is born.

>> it's not easy. it sometimes doesn't come naturally. sometimes babies don't feed on demand. it's a learned behavior both by the mom and the baby. and there's nothing more important than a nurturing environment with a coach and some dedicated cheerleaders get you through some of the humps. >> among the new recommendations help -- this weekend, a quarter of the nfl quarterbacks who took the field left with concussions. doctors, trainers and coaches have started paying closer attention to the cumulative brain injuries sustained from concussion and what they mean not just for the pros but for our kids. passionate about staying in the game. football is america's sport. and christian stevenson's 12- year-old son is enamored with it. >> he gets up two hours before practice, he's got his uniform on. he can't walk when he gets off

the practice field because they've worked him so hard but he's smiling. >> her experience has been far different. after suffering repeated concussions playing the game he loved, he knew it was time to quit. >> my memory is still kind of off. >> because of growing concerns that some of the damage from repeated concussions doesn't go away, one leading boston researcher proposed very tough guidelines for the youngest athletes. >> we believe that kids under the age of 14 shouldn't play collision sports as they're currently being played. >> and dr. kent recommends no full body checking under age 14 in ice hockey and for soccer players, not letting the younger kids head the ball. >> the young child is particularly vulnerable to brain injury. >> at the pro level, greater recognition of the long-term effects of brain trauma prompted the nfl to enact new rules on concussion that is dictate when players can get back on the field. the nfl players' association

even formed a traumatic brain injury committee of which dr. jim eckland is part. >> and a numb things to help -- number of thinks to help protect the players as that game's gotten faster and more -- more aggressive and the athletes have gotten more powerful. >> he says making tackle football off-limits at the youth or pop warner level seems a bit rigid but young athletes need to be taught how to tackle correctly and one thing at every level of the game? players need to stay out for at least a week after they're symptom free if they lose consciousness he recommends two weeks rest. >> especially a child who isn't totally recovered from the first concussion can have a relatively small second concussion and develop severe brain swelling that can be life- threatening. >> that's something he didn't want to risk after one particularly violent play.

>> i just remember hitting him head-on. and i'm walking away from the hit and all i see is white. and i'm like -- oh my god. where am i at right now? >> the doctor says the danger of second impact syndrome remains controversial among docs but what's not is that the brain must have time to heal after being bumped, rattled. bruised and shaken. signs of a concussion include -- athletes should be symptom free for at least a week before going back on the field. and there's more evidence tonight that as the nation we're popping too many antibiotic pills. and it's making common infections more dangerous and tough to treat. the bacteria that causes urinary tract infections are not responding to drugs the way they used to and the cdc says certain states still have far greater antibiotic prescription rates than others, west virginia is among them. we parents also have had -- patients also have to do our part. take the right dose at the right time and take all the
